Typical Seth Abramson
Rather than ask friends to ask @Gargron or his admin, he just goes off in public. It was probably a mistake, just as mine was. He blocks all his many critics. Heaven forbid someone should block him back. Post .news is probably rewarding him for this caterwauling.

Germany raids far-right group over plot to install prince in coup
Germany on Wednesday detained 25 members and supporters of a far-right group that the prosecutor's office said was preparing a violent overthrow of the state to install as national leader a prince who had sought support from Russia.Prosecutors said the group was inspired by the deep state conspiracy theories of Germany's Reichsbuerger and QAnon, whose advocates were among those arrested after the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January 2021.
Members of the Reichsbuerger (Citizens of the Reich) do not recognise modern-day Germany as a legitimate state. Some of them are devoted to the German empire under monarchy, while some are adherents of Nazi ideas and others believe Germany is under military occupation.

50 Years Ago: Apollo 17 Lights Up the Night Sky on its Way to the Moon
The sixth and final Apollo Moon landing mission began with the Dec. 7, 1972, launch of Apollo 17. In the first night launch of the American human spaceflight program, the giant Saturn V rocket lifted off from Launch Pad 39A and lit up the sky at NASA…Kelli Mars (NASA)
AND there will be a rare occultation of Mars by the full moon this evening.
But I live in Ohio.
And it's raining.
😞
Of course you had to launch it at night. How else would you be able to see the moon?
And yes, I know you can see the moon during the day sometimes. But it's hard, and that makes navigation hard.

hey remember how in 2 you always got stuff for leveling up (either weapons or super sea snails)?
yeah what happened to that. like what's the point of exp food now.
